In APD (Automated Peritoneal Dialysis), pressure sensors play a vital monitoring role. They measure the pressure in an air column linked to the dialysis tubing to indirectly show intra-abdominal pressure, helping to control fill, dwell and drain stages and keep patients safe.
Motion-sensor sampling strategies—layered sampling, event-driven wake, and pressure+IMU fusion—sharpen airflow sensing in lightweight flying toys. The WF27HH-like MEMS SMD sensors enable precise control, low power, and smoother user experience.
This piece looks at a temperature-self-compensating MEMS micro-pressure sensor based on an island-beam-membrane coupled design, and explains how the structure actively cancels output drift caused by thermal stress. Made with SOI and dual-DRIE precision processing, the device shows very low temperature drift across 0°C–50°C (zero-point drift 0.081%FS, full-range drift 0.090%FS, nonlinearity 0.307%FS), offering a high-accuracy, low-power micro-pressure detection option.
5 V outputs (e.g. 0–5 V or 0.5–4.5 V) vs 10 V outputs (e.g. 0–10 V or 1–10 V) mainly differ in span (range) and power/compatibility. 0–10 V gives twice the span of 0–5 V but typically requires a higher supply (commonly 12 VDC). Ratiometric 0.5–4.5 V is usually powered from 5 VDC.
Multi-stage pressure monitoring for laparoscopic CO₂ insufflators: pick temperature-compensated, calibrated MEMS sensors (fast ~3 ms, ±0.25% FSL), monitor at source and cavity, estimate flow from a 30 mmHg point, add redundancy and real-time filtering.
Judging the linearity of a pressure sensor is a very important and common task, because it directly affects the measurement accuracy of the sensor.
Hydraulic pressure sensors turn fluid pressure into electrical signals, using MEMS microstructures like diaphragms and piezoresistive bridges for precise readings.
This article takes an engineering view, focusing on hardware traits, operating principles, sealing and packaging, data processing, and the way depth sensors directly improve control in underwater engineering. The aim is to explain in clear technical language how sensors underpin accurate underwater operations.
This article explains the key technical parameters you should understand when selecting a pressure sensor for a project. It walks through medium compatibility, rated/withstand/burst pressures, compensated temperature range, zero-point drift and linearity — showing how each affects reliability, accuracy and suitability for specific applications.
This content breaks down the sensor’s role in five areas: safety monitoring, flow measurement with temperature–pressure correction, differential flow calculation, system diagnostics, and intelligent data use.
This text focuses on how GPS barometric pressure sensors support continuous indoor and outdoor dead-reckoning navigation. It covers principles, data fusion, indoor-outdoor transitions, hardware integration, and algorithm requirements.
Altitude pressure sensors (MEMS barometers) give drones steady, low-power height data and are a key input for flight control and navigation.
Pressure sensors — whether for gas or liquid — are at the heart of safety and fine control in smart appliances. From device safety and energy management to fault diagnosis, user experience and system integration, this piece explains the sensor’s role across smart air conditioners, fridges, cooker hoods, water heaters, kettles and smart sanitary ware.
The top-ported WF100 positive pressure sensor improves pipe measurements when matched to the range, ensuring a tight connection, and calibrated for zero, span, and temperature. Reliable pipe pressure measurements can be achieved by using short hoses, proper filtering, and verifying against the reference sensor datasheet.
Ordinary barometers—piezoresistive, capacitive or MEMS silicon resonant—can’t reliably detect 10 cm (≈0.012 Pa) in real life: the pressure change is tiny vs draughts, switching, people and sensor noise/drift.
